We head into the golden jubilee year of this version of OL. Hopefully we can grab everybody for the last week.
I will be pulling the plug on PT, so there will be no more post season graphics, but I think 50 seasons is a formidable number. I have a visceral disaffection for PT, and this season has been the worst. The cards are increasingly detached from reality. I have an old Strat game with some old timer teams that I might break out to cleanse my head of the idea that there is a world where Johnny Vander Meer could out pitch Johnny Sain, let alone Left Grove or Walter Johnson. I don't mean to carp, but that was the card that broke my brain. Sorry for the whining, but I'm an old guy and have the sense of privilege that develops from snow on the rooftop.
The last two or three months I have just been entering tourneys and opening packs, filling the collections I fell into and occasionally hitting the AH to complete one. Anyway, during that time I only sold duplicates and live perfects, diamonds, and golds. I had built up quite a backlog of historical cards, so I sold off the diamonds and golds on Saturday night and Sunday morning and spent the points on new players for my teams. With at least 500,000 per team, the improvements still weren't enough to put a charge in the game for me, so I will just let it go. I'm sure I'll check the forum now and again.May open packs in a month or so. I do love the pack open sound bite.
No, I didn't get a Vander Meer 100.
Good luck to all.
